*Hi, I am so sorry I haven't updated in like 3 months. I know you are all sick of me making excuses and all, but pls trust me when I say I planned on updating a month and a half ago. I've had some family issues, such as my father and mother. I like to refer to them as their actual names now. We're going to call my dad A and my mom K, okay? So basically A took away my computer and all my other devices because I was being secretive, aka being in my room. Maybe it's because K went through all my notes and my journal aka invading my privacy? I DUNNNO, so we ain't on very good terms rn, but I am updating now, sorry for the short chapter. THIS STORY IS NOT OVER I PROMISE YOU, AND I ALSO PROMISE I AM TRYING HARD TO UPDATE THIS FANFICTION AND THE OTHER ONE ON WATTPAD! I also may be moving this story onto wattpad for convenience.*

Roden's POV (I know a new one, yayyyyyyy!)

Jaron stormed off to the gardens, his usual spot. I stormed after him. Does he really not care about me? Why am I even surprised? He slammed the door in my face, not knowing I was following him. I opened it and walked inside.

"You really don't care about me?" I said, holding my place on the ground.

He turned to look at me with hatred in his eyes. "No I don't."

My eyes widened, "Of course, you only care about Imogen and will kill anyone in your path to get to her." I mumbled.

"Don't you dare speak to me that way, I am your king and you will treat me as such!"

"Why are you like this Jaron?" I walked towards him. "What happened to you?"

"I am right here. Listen to me very carefully, Roden."

I looked up.

"You mean nothing to me. I am your king and you better treat me like one."

Tears filled my eyes. "You said I was your closest friend, your most trusted friend."

He stepped forward, "Those were all lies." I could tell his eyes were beginning to glaze.

I stepped forward again and took his hands in mine, "So you lied to me?" I looked down.

"You surprised? I couldn't have you kill me so what else was I supposed to do?" He harshly took his hands out of mine as if in disgust.

I froze.

Everything was a lie.

Our entire friendship was a lie.

He used me.

He pretended to be nice.

And I fell for it.

I even liked him.

Scratch that I loved him.

I quickly walked back to the door and twisted the handle, briefly looking back while I talked to him for the last time.

"If I really mean nothing to you, then you won't react to this." I paused for a moment and stepped out of the room leaving the door open. "I love you Jaron." I said and closed the door. I did not miss the blush that crept onto his face when he looked down at the ground. I could sense his hand slightly raising up an inch or two before lowering itself back down once the door closed all the way.

My last sentence I spoke to him was not a lie.
